Wrist PDA User Guide
Can my Wrist PDA use infrared for “beaming”
with another Palm device?

(see page 91) and infrared HotSync operations (see page 105), at
distances no greater than one foot.
Battery Questions
How long does the battery last on my Wrist
PDA?
The rechargeable battery on your Wrist PDA should last 3 to 4 days
with an average of 30 minutes of PDA usage per day with no
infrared port beaming and no backlight usage. This duration may
vary depending on the amount of PDA usage, the temperature, and
other factors.
Can I lose my data if the screen goes blank
from not charging the battery?
After the screen goes blank, the watch should retain data for about
one day. Beyond this time, you need to synchronize your watch with
your PC to restore data.
How can I maximize the battery life?
There are several settings you can change on your Wrist PDA to
help extend battery life:
• In the Wrist PDA preferences, set the Watch Mode App to
None instead of Watch.
• In General preferences, set Auto-off After to the lowest
setting and set Beam Receive to Off.
• Limit use of the backlight.
• Limit use of the infrared port.
• Try not to use processor and display intensive applications
such as games.
